Spring Band Concert

The final band concert was this past Thursday. It was bitter-sweet for us, because Bode has decided to not continue in the Choctawhatchee band next year. There just aren't enough hours in the day to do swimming and band. We hope he will continue to play, perhaps in a local youth symphony.

The concert band played three pieces. Bode is seated at the very front left of the band. The first piece is a Hebrew Folk song.

Next was a very short but nice piece.
Finally, they played a suite of Disney songs.
Bode also started working at the Eglin pool as a lifeguard. He makes $15 per hour, which is great money for a kid. The downside of Bode working is he is not yet driving, so we get to drive him to some more activities.  They had a life-guard meeting on Thursday. I surreptitiously snapped a photo--Bode is on the far left.

Bode is gone this weekend. He is on a school fun-trip to Gatlinberg. He left on Friday morning and gets back late on Monday. Ashley decided to celebrate Bode being gone by getting sick :-( Hopefully it's just a head cold. Happy weekend to all :-)
